I would like to thank Stephen and his crew for the amazing work they did remodeling my outdated kitchen (last two pictures). I took my time comparing other contractors prior to the start of the remodel, but Stephen stood out with his professionalism, attention to detail, and fair pricing. He helped us choose the right materials and even provided a 3D model to give us a clear idea of how the final kitchen would look. His contract was very well structured, with everything clearly listed, there were no hidden fees or surprises at the end of the project. His communication was excellent throughout the entire process. They handled everything you see in the photos, removing the bulkhead, adding a dishwasher, new flooring, painting, backsplash tile, garbage disposal, under-cabinet lighting, installing new lights, laying a new water line for the fridge’s water dispenser, and installing all the appliances. What stood out most to me was that Stephen made sure everything was up to his own high standards. If something wasn’t quite there, he made sure it got corrected, which really shows how much he cares about the quality of his work, and I really appreciate that kind of attention to detail. I’m so glad I went with Renewed Homes Construction after taking the time to compare others. If I have more projects in the future, I’ll definitely work with them again. 10/10, highly recommend!

Expert Kitchen Island Design and Build in Fox Chapel, PA
Fox Chapel kitchens sit inside large custom homes that were built for a different era of cooking and entertaining. Many layouts have the square footage but lack a true work center. A custom kitchen island design and build from Pittsburgh Home Renovations changes that. We start by mapping how you actually use the space: where you prep, how many people cook at once, and whether you need seating, a prep sink, or built-in storage. From there, we size and position the island to keep clear walkways on all sides and protect the flow between your sink, range, and refrigerator. We handle framing, electrical, plumbing rough-in, cabinetry, and countertop installation as one coordinated scope. Fox Chapel homes often carry strong architectural character, so we match millwork profiles and finish details to what already exists in the kitchen. When you are ready to talk through your layout, call Pittsburgh Home Renovations for a design consultation.
